''Ask the Family'' is a British television quiz show originally made by the BBC and broadcast between 1967 and 1984. In 1999, it was revived by the BBC, and in 2005 again returned with a series on BBC2. The show took the form of a quiz contest between two teams, with each team consisting of four members of a single family – two parents and two teenage children. Over the course of the thirty-minute show the teams were asked a variety of general knowledge questions and mental puzzles, with the winner advancing to the next round. == Original series ==
The show was created in 1967 by Patricia Owtram and continued on BBC1 for 17 years until being cancelled in 1984, after being won by the Ward family from Portstewart, Northern Ireland. Throughout this time it was presented by Robert Robinson. ''Ask the Family'' proved a hit, becoming known for its riddles and favourites such as images of household objects viewed from close-up (photographed by Eric Ilett) as well as its perennially precocious young contestants. Its theme music was also distinctive, a piece called "Acka Raga" performed by John Mayer on the sitar. Later series of the programme's original run used "Sun Ride" performed by John Leach as theme music. The final three seasons were heralded by an arrangement of Scott Joplin's Maple Leaf Rag. The teams were asked questions, with certain questions directed at only certain members of the family – such as "children only", or "father and elder child only". The series was in knockout format with each week's winner returning in the next round.
